Strongest Superhuman System

Tylor's last attack had blown a large amount of dust into the air, so he used a moment to watch and see if there would be any movement. If there wasn't, then he was going to get Fiona and bolt out of there. But he was shocked when he felt Fiona's blessing commanding him to duck!

"Phoenix Slash."

Tylor's head dropped faster than the speed of light as he felt a massive amount of heat rising above him! Tylor quickly ignited flames on his legs once more as he felt the Phoenix Slash travel past him and slam into the walls of the room, tearing them perfectly in two and continuing on its way! Tylor blasted towards Gunter and roared as his entire body was engulfed in red fire!

"ARGGHHHHH!!"

BOOOM!!

An explosion larger than anything Tylor had ever created before suddenly shook the entire room! Fiona was still being carried by one of the anima, and she quickly tried to use her blessing to see if her link with Tylor was still intact! She breathed a sigh of relief when she felt that the link was still there, but she felt a tremor down to her core when she heard a laugh coming from the smoke.

"Hahahahaha! This one is feisty too! You've grown, haven't you, kid!? To think you're capable of lasting this long against me!"

The smoke finally cleared, and Fiona saw Gunter holding Tylor up by his arm. Tylor was a very large man, but with the way Gunter was holding him up, you would think that Tylor was a fucking child! Tylor glared at Gunter, and Gunter's grin only widened as he drew his arm back.

Golden fire burst to life on his fist.

"Let me show you what a real punch looks like." Experience new stories on empire

WOOSH!

KA-TWOOM!!

Like a fucking implosion at the center of a sun, everything faded into gold! Gunter's punch was so intense that Fiona didn't even see it happen! She only felt the initial heat from the fire, and immediately after, she and all the anima around were blown back from the shockwave!

BOOM!

Fiona tumbled to the ground and slammed into the wall of the room far away from the fight. Foian felt a sharp pain in her rib again, but she ignored it as she scrambled to her feet and turned to Tylor in worry! She immediately tried to feel for the connection through her blessing, and Fiona felt fear fill her heart when she did not feel it at all! Her connection with Tylor was gone!

"Ah, yes, that was a good warm-up. Sometimes, you need to really beat manners into little kids before they know their place."

Gunter walked out from the smoke around him while cracking his neck with one hand. His other hand was still in his pocket, and he gave Fiona a grin as he calmly got closer. There wasn't a single burn on his body even after the intense battle he had just gone through, and Fiona knew that this was it for her. If everything Tylor did was useless, then there was nothing she could do.

Grab!

"Eh? So you're not dead yet?"

A hand suddenly latched onto Gunter from behind, and Gunter raised a brow as he felt someone wrap their hands and legs around him. Fiona was shocked to see Tylor moving at all, and she tried to see if she could get a connection with him again. But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't connect her blessing.

Right now, Tylor's mind was as clear as it had ever been. Fiona's blessing no longer had a hold of his mind and Tyor felt like he was in control of his own body and mind for the first time in forever. Tylor's dark eyes stared straight into Fiona's blue eyes, and in there, Fiona saw both anger as well as a devotion that she had never seen before, all directed at her!

Tylor's body began to glow a dark red, and Gunter clicked his tongue in irritation as he reached back to grab Tylor off him. But before Gunter could do anything, Tylor's mana surged out from his body in waves as he activated the most devastating attack in his arsenal!

Kamikaze.

Fiona immediately raised her hand up to her face as every single anima remaining under her control ran towards her to protect her from the coming explosion, and the NSA building shook!

KA-BOOOOM!!!

…

Rumble! Rumble!

Jeanne stood from her chair once she felt the tremors traveling through the building! She looked towards Salazar and saw that he still had that smile on his face as he stood up from his chair as well. The entire building was shaking under their feet, and Jeanne decided that it was time for her to go.

Ring~! Ring~!

Milicent's phone suddenly rang, and Milicent picked it up and listened for a few seconds before she spoke to Salazar.

"Sir, the underground lab was broken into. Gunter has moved to apprehend the intruders."

Salazar gave Jeanne a curious look before he smiled again.

"It seems things have escalated already. We're not going to be able to continue this conversation. I apologize."

Jeanne slowly backed up towards the door and she heard Pat's voice suddenly come through the comms.

[Jeanne. Get out of there now. I can't reach Fiona or Tylor anymore.]

Jeanne didn't need to hear anything more than that! She turned around and bolted towards the door, and Milicent immediately stepped in Jeanne's path to block her. Milicent was a B-rank superhuman, and since she knew Jeanne wasn't a superhuman focused on physical abilities, she was more than confident in her abilities to stop Jeanne in a head-on fight!

But even though Jeanne was only a B-rank physically, her blessing was still far stronger than anything Milicent could keep up with. Jeanne dodged around an initial punch from Milicent and ducked low before shooting up and slamming the heel of her palm into Milicent's jaw while activating her touch of death.

The touch of death allowed Jeanne to heal someone in exchange for their life force. Jeanne was always careful while using this skill because she knew that it would kill anyone that she used it indiscriminately on. But right now, Jeanne didn't bother holding back at all as she released the full potential of her blessing on Milicent!

"Ahh… Ah…!"

Milicent's eyes started to blur as her hair grew white. Her skin began to wrinkle, and she eventually grew extremely old before falling to the ground in a boneless heap! All of this happened in less than three seconds, and Jeanne slammed through the door of the office and bolted out without bothering to see whether Salazar was chasing her or not.

Back in the office, Salazar gazed down at the aged body of his secretary calmly before stepping over her and following behind Jeanne. Salazar spoke gently while walking and his voice carried through the hallway and reached Jeanne.

"The elevators won't work, Jeanne. I had hoped you were sensible enough to join me, but I suppose you already picked a side. This world is moving into a new phase, Jeanne, and you're going to be a part of it whether you like it or not. I'm sure you're already aware of what I can do to you if you refuse, so don't make this any harder than it needs to be."
